Shane’s Free Pick

Both of these starting pitchers are coming off a bad start, but it’s going to be different here. The Cardinals offense only scored a run on Wednesday and they are going to really struggle in this game against Lively. The Reds also will struggle against Montgomery and this game is going to stay under the total. Back the under.
